Blackfin Snapper
Venice, Louisiana, offers anglers a unique opportunity to target Blackfin Snapper amidst the rich waters of the Gulf of Mexico. The numerous offshore oil rigs and platforms that dot the landscape provide ideal habitat for these fish, creating a haven for Blackfin Snapper. The warmer months, from spring through fall, are generally the most productive. When fishing the rigs, try chumming to attract the fish to the surface. Live bait, such as small pogies or squid, is highly effective when fished near the structure. Venice is known for its strong currents and deep water, so be prepared to use heavier weights to get your bait down to the strike zone. Also, the area is prone to sudden changes in weather, so always check the forecast before heading out, and be aware of any platform-specific safety regulations.
